Up To Eleven is a defunct trope
Changed line(s) 52 (click to see context) from:
* HypocriticalHumor: Taking this UpToEleven is a staple of the show. Examples include Principal Blackman commanding students to avoid falling in with a cult from a giant portrait with flashing eyes. Also, Noblet and Jellineck, who are having a gay affair, frequently toss around anti-gay slurs. So does omnisexual Jerri.

* EndOfSeriesAwareness: The final episode ends with the school board deciding to tear down the high school and replace it with a strip mall, a meta joke on the new series that Comedy Central was replacing the show with. In the end, the characters decide to violently destroy the high school and become drifters.

DysfunctionJunction: Flatpoint High has apathetic or incompetent teachers, and insane students...but that's the show's signature humor.
*DysfunctionalFamilyDysfunctionalFamily: The Blanks, obviously. Jerri is an ex-prostitute and drug addict who is known for her (often, unintentionally) racist remarks, which she seems to have inherited from her father Guy (who owns Klan robes, once called Principal Blackman "an ugly word", and for his funeral, requested "no darkies" to attend). Her stepmother Sara hates her, [[ParentalFavoritism favors her son Derrick]] is openly racist, and is having an affair with the meat man. Jerri's half-brother Derrick is an untalented DumbJock who believes that he is all that.

* YouLookFamiliar: Virginia Williams played four different characters throughout the series. It would seem at first that Delores Duffy did this, too, playing the school secretary Iris Puffybush, a nurse, and the owner of an artificial flower factory in various episodes, but it looks like she's really supposed to be all those things at the same time.
